Something to cheer about

Not to harp on the scorelessness, but the biggest cheers so far just came with a minute left in halftime, as new basketball coach Stan Heath was introduced, along with his wife Ramona and their younger son, Josh. Lots of cheers for Heath, who is all business this weekend as he entertains a high school recruit, 6-foot-8 forward Orane Chin of Miramar, formerly of Miami Dr. Krop. Chin earned first-team all-state honors after averaging 25 points and 14 rebounds at Miramar. He's also considering Massachusetts.
